Pumpkins!!!

For the first time since we started our garden, we decided to grow pumpkins! It was so fun watching them grow and spread across the yard. On Friday night, we went and gathered them all up to get ready for some carving- Travis and Aiden did their own original designs, while I was busy cleaning off the seeds for roasting! Now, we just have to figure out what to do with the rest of them! :)

Aiden's pumpkin is on the left, I like to call him "Scar Face"...he turned out awesome!!!

Weekend Update...

So, even though it was wonderful to have such beautiful weather- I think my body and mind are ready for fall. This weekend was a wonderful, relaxing weekend of getting things done around the house!

On Saturday, I had the house cleaned, I had worked out and tanned all before noon! That is a huge accomplishment for me!

We had Aiden and Levi all day to entertain us and keep us busy. We bought Aiden's Halloween Costume on Friday night and he and Levi decided to dress up around the house all day- here's a sneak peek! :)

I couldn't resist taking pictures of the beautiful burning bush around our house that is finally turning red, we planted these about 3 years ago and they are just now really taking off!

We also have a few pumpkins that we are waiting to be ready- I took a picture of my favorite! :)

And she said yes...

Well, it's official...we are engaged!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Words cannot express how happy and excited we are! Travis asked me on a Tuesday night- just as I suspected- competely random!!!

He asked me to come in the kitchen and when I did, he was on one knee. He asked me to marry him and - of course- I said yes!!!!!!!

Love you honey- can't wait for the years ahead! xoxo
